I Ask for Immortality with Bones

In the spiritual world of Linghuang Continent, there is an unseemly common sense: when a monk dies, his Tao will not dissipate with him. The Tao cultivated during life will be condensed in the bones, which are called "Tao bones"; the fragments of will remaining in the Tao bones are called "bone thoughts". The dead man cannot speak, but his bones do. The attitude of the mainstream spiritual community towards Taoist bones is taboo. Collecting corpses and burying them is considered a low-level job because it "contaminates the spirit of death and damages the road." This rule is not a superstition - it is an information monopoly that has been carefully maintained by the spiritual community for thousands of years: as long as no one listens, the dead will always shut up.
